Last year we had the youngest defense in the sec and it showed. Sophomore’s get bigger faster and stronger just over the summer. Add experience and we’re much better off. Our offense wasn’t the main issue last year. We lost 3 games just because our secondary couldn’t stop anyone on 3rd and 10-25. Just on defense we should avoid 2-3 stupid losses.
There were times where the offense wasn’t the issue. But the situational play calling by Napier absolutely killed drives and momentum. Let’s stop ignoring that.
Outside of the first offensive sequence in the last 6 games, we were something like 7 for 31 TD verses drives. That is abysmal.
7 for 31 in first half drives...
@@williamhaynes2414 second half just as bad. People just look at the total points and ignore everything else.
Agreed. The offense wasn't the problem. When the defense can't get the other team off the field, you lose more than just the other team scoring points. You also keep your offense off the field which limits the points per game. We played more freshman than any team in the country last year. These freshman are bigger and stronger now like you said and they have experience which was obviously lacking last year. They also have something incredibly important many don't take account of and that's depth. Personally, I think the defense will be better but it will take the 2025 season before the defense catches up to the offense in talent. Having said that, I think Florida has a chance to win no matter what team they play if we can get some production on defense. Give us a defense with a heartbeat ... and something other than a bunch of freshman ... and Napier wouldn't be on the hot seat this year.
Forget about 9-3 ! Go UNDEFEATED ! 😂 🤣
“Exactly right.” ☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️
U made a funny face when he said " Muschamp was a Dead man walking " ! 😂
Go 🐊!! Wax Miami. Rinse and repeat. All. Season. Long.
I will believe it, and be very happy, when I see it.
He has the best team Florida has had since 2018/2019 on Def ,Off, and ST. There will be no excuses this year. I just don't know if UF will pay the 25 million due if he is fired this year.
I think we have the most complete team since 2009. No glaring weaknesses.
Invest the 25 million into talent to surround Lagway and McCray and the UF program will be back.
What about Gators other receivers? Got to have some ready to breakout, or at least be effective in crucial downs. I'm lost on names I have them in my head. But there are several that have to be better.
Aiden Mizell and Andy Jean are sophomores this year should be ready to take big steps forward not to mention freshman tank Hawkins and TJ Abrams
@stevebeckerman2335 I agree with you but my question is what in the world is wrong with Andy Jean that's keeping him from playing quality minutes? It seems he's been hurt ever since the first game he got hurt in last year. I see him posting videos working out and stuff but he still hasn't been listed as available smh
@@shaquitaware6563he came in with injury and aggravated it when he played he should be good now tho
WRs to watch out for include Kahleil Jackson, Andy Jean, Mizell, Tank Hawkins.
5 yard passes still move the chains . Play to our qb's strengths
Seemingly ! Sounds good, though. But sometimes.... It's " Over Analysis , Paralysis " ! Time Will tell ! " Game Day Coaching " by Billy Napier will be Critical !
The play calling this season must include getting the ball down the field. 60% of mertz completions were at or behind the line of scrimmage. Last year Mertz didnt have the weapons. This year he has the receivers the running game is good and the offensive line is better. The offense should be better
The defense is the question mark in my opinion. Are the Gators going to improve enough on that side of the ball to win more games. Only time will tell.
Maybe Mertz doesn’t read the field well or have the arm strength to go downfield? UF didn’t have that problem with Anthony Richardson. Remember the FSU game when Pearsall got behind the defense and Richardson found him? There might be a reason that Mertz is “Check Down Charlie” and it probably isn’t the play calling.
didn't have the weapons
you mean didn't USE the weapons he had
He had the weapons but our OLine was bad
Always an excuse…we saw Mertz play…he’s “Check Down Charlie” He has a high completion % because he never “goes for it.” It might be due to the perception that he turned the ball over too much at Wisconsin and he was focused way too much on not making mistakes. But UF isn’t good enough to pound the ground and control the ball . I don’t know where UF ranked in passes further than ten or fifteen yards past the line of scrimmage, but I bet it was near the bottom of college football.
Last year we could not go deep with a guard playing RT. Not the case this year. We have a back up QB who will be worked in this year who can go deep unlike last year's back up.
Who will start at quarterback for the Gators? Have they named a starter yet?
LETS GO GATORS!!!
We had no problem scoring last year , and this year will be even better .. if our defense could of handled their business last year , we would’ve had a lot more wins, a bowl game , and no hot seat..😒😒
We gonna be just fine this year, and even better next year .. go 🐊’s 💙🧡
Not going to lie Ali a hottie.
Gotta follow Shane Matthew’s idea - throw deep 4-6 times a game. In fact, send 1 or 2 guys deep practically every play just to stretch the D vertically - to open up seams, etc. and to make it credible,my you have to toss some balls long. Even if the OL is suspect, you can still design some long pass plays.
Shane Matthews? That fool said that it was lock that UF would win “at least” eight games last season and kept saying GSU was a bad team…he’s a fool!
We have more WR speed this year than last year. We can go deep. Lagway rolling out has a gun that can go deep plus he is a run threat.
If UF’s counting on a true freshman, Lagway, there’s zero hope that UF will be over the 4.5 wins Vegas has them at. You’re talking about Lagway? I guess you don’t watch college football much, do you? Tell me about a true freshman QB that’s played well. Until then, enough of this nonsense about Lagway.
The passing game is what won most games . Badger ig says WR #1 Florida! The offense has too many weapons to be a passing offense!
I don't understand his analysis of Napier's play calling. He calls plays short of the sticks all the time. We would have lost to SC if Boardman hadn't broken two tackles after catching the ball behind the line.
if the ball doesn't get"chunked all over the yard" as you say,MORE than last year, it's NOT GOING TO END WELL..
And I'm a Gator fan
Also, he'd rather have a 3/9 thab a 6/6!!!!
you're fuckin kidding right
if it's 3/9 I'm relatively SURE almost EVERYONE will know what the PROBLEM is
SMFH
Because of the impatient fans Billy does not have time to break in another play caller and change the offense. With better talent at offensive tackles offense should be better.
Will is missing on Tank's and Lagway's "coming out party" like he missed on QB Grier's coming out party when UF upset Ole Miss (who beat Bama). Tank + Tre Wilson = double trouble = SPEED.
I'm not really excited about their offense until I see them produce results. Sorry but I've been fooled too many times.
I'm not seeing 6-6 ! 😂 Especially with Coach Napier calling the plays ! I thought he hired an Offensive Coordinator !
Stay tuned clown 🤡
Napier is not a proven good game day / play calling coach. I'm skeptical he has improved.
Callaway is gonna help him out now
How could he improve do you think?
Turn over play calling to someone else.
He has taken a lot off his plate with the coaches he brought in on defense, so ha can mainly focus on the offense
Haven’t you figured out by now that Napier makes the decisions? Guess what? Napier has NOT changed ANYTHING since the day he arrived in Gainesville. NOTHING has changed! I have supreme confidence is saying that Napier thinks he’s done EVERYTHING correctly and he thinks the Gators are a good team, and, in his own own words, even an “elite” one. When addressing obvious special team snafus, have you ever heard him give the slightest hint that he thinks there was a problem? It’s time to take the blinders off and start to believe what you see and hear. Like Trump’s a criminal moron, Napier’s convinced he’s done everything perfectly and he’s never going to make any adjustments to
his “plan.” What that “plan” is, I have no idea, unless it’s to maintain mediocrity.
when you see them calling less aggressive plays on the offense
It makes you question their vision on the talent
Is this comedy or satire?
If he secures this recruiting class and make a bowl game this year we will be fine . If the recruiting class falls apart and we don't make a bowl game this year billy should be fired who agrees with me ? We have been terrible under bn we should have won a lot more games last year .
Napier has one more year to show some type of game day coaching skills imo. I along with many have not been impressed. I can give at least 6 games that we should have won but lost at a minimum during his tenure. No buy in hype any longer until i see him turn this dumster fire around!
Talent makes u look like a good coach just like it can make u look bad. Kirby wouldn't have done any better w what we had last season
Veteran Mertz already having a year under his belt in this system along with center Slaughter and Tre Wilson plus RB Johnson's 3 years in it will have this offense humming. TE experience also a +
Florida is 67th in recruiting rankings WOW Florida dropped the ball not firing him that puts the next head coach in a hole
Wrong. Gatorade top national player Lagway and Mccray will attract in top talent. Plenty of time to switch early pledged players.
Why is UF’s offensive line going to be better? It’s Deja vu all over again. We heard the same last season when UF brought in FOUR transfer offensive linemen. Was there a single one who played well? Ow we’re hearing the same propaganda that the offensive line will be better. Why? Austin Barber is a projected starter who sucked last season. Damien George is a projected starter who sucked last year. Guess what? George changing positions doesn’t suddenly make him a good player. He’s supposed to be better at guard, a position he’s NEVER played? If that’s true, why wasn’t he a guard last season? There’s two transfer tackles. Why are they going to be any better than George, who this staff thought was going to be a good tackle? UF had a staring guard, who didn’t suck, Richie Leonard. transfer. UF appears in good shape at center, but there are five spots on the offensive line, not just one. Sometimes the simplest answer is the right one. Could it be that Napier is poor coach and his staff reflects that?
Touting UF’s running game? Why is Montreal Johnson still at UF if he’s a great back? FSU’s Tre Benson left early for the NFL. Why didn’t Johnson? Especially since RBs have only so much tread and they , normally, don’t have careers that last over five years. I’m particularly jaded when I hear this propaganda since it’s usually nonsense. NTW, UF is looking at something that hasn’t happened since 1938. See if you can figure out what that is.
Richie was mid, Florida lacked hella depth and then struggled with injuries
I love the Gators , but that Coach is and will always be a loser😢
This guy is not an expert 😂😂😂😂😂No wonder why we are in the mess that we are in listening to people like this guy. 😅😅😅😅😅Doing news from his Mama, basement guy. We need people like my first cousin Alonzo Johnson people like Louis Oliver also Stop turning people off like Lamar Jackson Derrick Henry. People are leaving our backyard bleeding out the Championship, leaving the state. Getting our information from so-called experts Build trust Fix the broken relationships in our state first. THAT IS 70 PERCENT OF THE PROBLEM RIGHT THERE
He has a successful pre-season mag, 3k+ subscribers, is being invited to talk by several Gator channels as well as on ESPN with Paul Finebaum. He works as an engineer for his f/t job (this is his side gig/passion). Your statement is wrong.
That doesn’t mean he’s an expert. It just means he’s a successful marketer. Hell, Donald “Stinky” Trump is an inveterate liar, failed businessman, sexual predator, criminal, moron, etc. But that hasn’t topped millions of suckers favoring for him and giving him $, even when he’s proclaimed he’s so rich he doesn’t need anybody else $. There’s a sucker born every minute.
